Rodent Baiting

Rodent control services provided by the department of Streets and Sanitation can be requested by calling 311 or the 31st Ward office. Crews are sent to investigate the request. In order to help combat the rodent population, residents should properly contain their garbage, dog owners need to clean up after their pets and make sure waste materials are disposed of in sealed containers. If dog owners fail to clean up after their pets, they are attracting and feeding rats.
